Akon’s threatening to move back to Africa, kind of like how Seal and Heidi Klum are saying they’ll leave, but with less panache because (let’s face it) he’s not as popular as he thinks. He spends way too much time attacking his own fans to get much sympathy from us, but the threat is there nonetheless:
“If he [Obama] doesn’t get into office, I’m gonna change my citizenship,” he said. “I’m moving back to Africa. You can hold me to that. I’m afraid to live there if he [McCain] is President. The decisions he makes scare me: he’s making selfish decisions, he’s doing whatever it takes to get into office.”
Akon had a few choice words on Sarah Palin in the same interview with The Guardian, commenting that “she’s definitely going to be president” because McCain won’t make it “eight years.”
Unfortunately, Akon is unable to vote due to a previous felony conviction. Perhaps that’s why he’s making up for it by being extra vocal this time, because, as The Guardian noted, he “does not have a track record of speaking out on politics.”
Maybe he’ll move in with Obama’s brother?
“Be it ever so humble, there’s no place like hut.”
Just think. Our loss is Africa’s gain
waaa
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out! LOL
he’s doing whatever it takes to get into office.”
like raise $600 million and get the entire media to be in the tank for him?
Talk about a joke writing itself!
Take Obambi with you ... and watch that the door doesn’t hit you
OK, I give up. Who in the hell is AKON???
I assume he’s a black man because he refers to moving “back” to Africa...
I’ve never heard of this person.
I’ll help him pack.
Never heard of her.
Good, he lives down the street from me, on less lib we will have to deal with.
There’s that selfish word again. Buh-bye.
No, seriously, folks, who is Akon?
My first thought was, “What’s an Akon”.
My next thought was, “Never mind. I don’t really need to know”.
Who is Akon?
Who?
Who the heck is Akon?
But I’m willing to organize a huge bon voyage party for any libs leaving the country if McCain/Palin are elected.
Oh,please....please....PLEASE don't go,Akon (whoever the hell you are)! But if you do go and then change your citizenship do NOT forget to go to the nearest US Embassy/Consulate and officially renounce your US citizenship in the manner required by State Department regulations.
That's such an easy question to answer! Just go to Wikipedia to find out:
Akon's given name is Aliaune Thiam. Some sources have written his name as Aliaune Badara Thiam or Alioune Badara Thiam. Other sources say his name is Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thiam. However, About.com claims that this middle name has never been independently verified. In addition, some media institutions have incorrectly reported that he was born in 1981. Sources such as the AP have indicated he was born in 1973. Legal documents released by The Smoking Gun list his name as Aliaune Damala Thiam and date of birth as 1973-04-30 or 1973-04-16.
Much clearer now, isn't it?
